Leslie Hope as Teri Bauer on 24

In honor of Friday the 13th, Fancast has composed a list of televisions unluckiest characters. Jack’s wife and 24 Season 1 character Teri Bauer gets a spot on the list:

Teri Bauer, ‘24′: One of TV’s saddest and most unexpected death scenes was preceded by 23 hours and 50-ish minutes of wrong turns, displaced trust (whoa, Richard Burgi isn’t the girl’s father?!) and even a blink-and-you-missed-it, dramatically convenient bout of amnesia. Sure, Teri’s batch of bad luck was compressed into that very first day of ‘24,’ but man, was a character’s fate ever sealed.

“All I can say is, there are more shocks to come,” he said. “There was a big one last Monday. It was a shock for us too, but there are some really earth-shaking ones coming up.”

We asked him about a possible campaign for Cherry Jones for President, and he started to give us some scoop saying, “I don’t think she’d have it. I know she loves playing the president, but again, there is some stuff coming up that…” but stopped himself before finishing the thought, saying only “You may want to tune in.”

Certainly an intriguing answer to leave off on.

Gregory Itzin back on ’24′ as disgraced president

April 8, 2010

But no one on “24″ can overshadow Charles Logan, the former chief executive who commanded the fifth season as scoundrel, boob and treasonous schemer. Deliciously played by Gregory Itzin, President Logan stayed busy at his waffling, cover-ups, secret deals with terrorists, even an implicit role in Palmer’s assassination — all of it done (as Logan [...]
